Rock Band 3 Preview

Rock Band 3 looks to double as a teaching tool, with 3-part harmonies, a host of new features like Pro Mode, and new instruments like a keyboard and 6-String Fender Mustang and Squier Stratocaster pro guitars. Here Adam Sessler gets a preview.

Allow me to answer.1. The key board can be played on your lap or like a guitar thus it is as sturdy as you make it.2. Just plug and play. Easy.3. From the beginning of the Rock Band Music Store. HMX has only missed one week of weekly DLC add-ons. Why would they stop?4. I don t matter what version of the game you have all DLC goes around. Any DLC you may have in RB2 can be used in RB1 as well as the other way around. Besides the fact that some songs will have keyboard add on in the future of DLC I don t see why any of the future DLC would not work on RB2 or RB1. Besides if you are a hardcore RB fan look at your hard drive for your DLC. All DLC for RB is under your RB1 file.

Good preview but would have been nice if you touched ona couple things

1..how stable is the keyboard2..how easy to the old peripherals transfer over3..other than the doors DLC...will there be weekly DLC updatesand 4....for those of us who have to wait for either x-mas or tax time to come around....will harmonix go the way of activision and no longer release any DLC for RB2?
